St. Louis Cardinals at Florida Marlins, Aug 12, 2008 7:10 PM EDT
Hopefully the Marlins are through presenting gift games to the Cardinals. And they better be.
Volstad is coming off his best start since joining the big club. When he went 6 innings allowing 0 ER on 3 hits against Philadelphia. The biggest downside to Chris' pitching is that he is allowing 4 walks/nine. But that should clear itself up in time.
Lohse has looked human in his last three starts. Giving up over a hit an inning, along with five home runs. He normally pitches better at home than on the road. However he is a creature of the night posting a 2.52 ERA for the season when the stadium lights are turned on.
Ichthyomancy is pretending like yesterday never happen. Best of Luck to You!

Article
I came across a very informative and well written article about the Marlins on hardballtimes.com
http://www.hardballtimes.com/main/article/the-remains-of-the-season-florida-marlins/
Then I noticed who wrote it…
Nice job Craig!
indeed....good article.
I forgot that we were actually starting Burke Badenhop for a while. So now we’ve got a formidable rotation at last, and the hitting’s gone screwy.

We need a hitter, team is tearing my heart out. i hope an extra year of maturity eliminates the errors we consistently make.
Vamos pescados
WS title every 6 years ‘09
hermida to molina after that at bat:
“Why you give me that extra pitch, you’re just delaying the inevitable….”
JRS Cam
At 8:35 there was a ‘nice’ crowd. At 8:40… blurry rain drops
Interesting that it says PROPL on the bottom right
